Fresh Love Mood Board

I really just needed an excuse to create an outfit with colored jeans, and a giant read glitter hat. Thoughts? Concerns? Comments... yes please comments.

Glittery New Years Eve

We've decided to stay in for New Years eve, with all the crazies out there, but if I were to be going out, this is exactly what I would wear. I'm in love with the purse, and in fact the moment I found it, I new I was going with a glitz theme. Have a save New Years Eve! 

Holiday Fashion

Yes, it is true, this is pure AWESOME! I cannot wait to go shopping because I want all of this! Lucky for me I already I have the clutch, cardigan, dress, belt, earrings and necklace. Still need fancy shoes, glitz polish, and something for my fingers and wrist, oh and some blue shadow and pale pink lip gloss. 

Olive You!

Eric and I went to a wedding, and after final preparations, I had a complete outfit. In the vehicle it came to a unanimous vote that I looked like a green olive. I'm ok with this, I looked cute, and even cuter with Eric by my side.  

Running Errands Kind of Day

Normally I am not such a softy when it comes to fashion, especially when it comes to yellow gold. I prefer the boldness of silvers and grays. I'm really in love with the vintage belt, and rosette purse. I was inspired to make this outfit based off a green sweater and floral tank I already own. I love polyvore!

Lilac Love

I had this grand idea of styling some outfits based off of flowers. I'm really impressed with how this came out. I love the gray pearls, lace stockings and black flats. I thought the flats complimented the basic black belt. When I think of lilacs, I always think of my Grandma Norma, who passed away when I was a sophomore in high school. I guess that is why I tied in the knitted purple sweater. 

5th Night Date

So I know all of your are wondering, what is this outfit this time? No? Well I was indecisive on what to wear for our 5 year anniversary that it took me right till the very morning to pick out my outfit to a T. I knew I'd be wearing jeans, my wedding band, earrings Eric got me, smokey eyes and simple black shoes. It was the top I couldn't decided on the day before. Finally I settled for a very simple black WARM sweater. We were in New Bern NC for the photos, IN THE AM, and it was a little chilly from what I am used to (but I was loving it). Since it was uber cold, I decided to get rid of the pearl idea, and wear a scarf. I'm glad to it was rather toasty. Here is the run down of the total cost-ish. 

1. Sweater: $25 from Old Navy (new)

2. Jeans: $30 Old Navy (already owned)

3. Scarf: under $10 I think? from Target (already owned for years)

4. Shoes: $30 from Target (already owned- work shoes)

5. Earrings: Gift from my man

6. Ring: Gift from my man

7. Purse: From Belles $10 (already owned). It is simple and black, and not near as awesome as the one on the fashion mood board above. Confession, I didn't actually carry the purse in the photos. 

8. Socks, yes they had a tint of pink, on clearance for $2 from target (already owned)

9. Smokey eye: Priceless. 

Ladies, when in doubt, a simple smokey eye is the way to go. Now, don't go all to the shore on me, just enough for a wow factor, but not HOLY WOW! Got it? 

I don't have the pictures yet, but our awesome photography Pat has them posted to his blog, so please go check them out @ catherinealexanderphotography

ps. We were on vacation from Saturday night till yesterday morning? Could you tell?
